"Why fight it?"
We all come up against situations where there just doesn't seem to be any good solution. What good does it do to keep hitting your head against a brick wall? Well the Hebrew people grew discouraged in their trek to the promised land, remember? They hung up their harps and stopped singing, for the joy and enthusiasm had left them.
Their answer was God. He lifted their spirits and filled their hearts with joy. He became their reason for going on, and He can become our reason, too. When we are discouraged, we need to turn to God. He will lift us up and give us the courage we need to continue. Ask God to sustain you through those difficult times and fill you with enthusiasm and energy to face new challenges.
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
